Guignol's Historic Puppet Theatre
𝐀 𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐘 This summer, young and old will discover the adventures of Esther Wheelright with the puppet performance *The Fascinating Story of Esther in New France*. The play will be offered free of charge in various parks in Quebec City. The activity is free, no reservation required. 𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐖 Adopted at the age of 7 by the Abenakis after the attack on her New England village, little Esther is sent by the French to the Intendant's Palace. Worried about her fate, she crosses paths with our mischievous Guignol, with whom she becomes friends. This budding friendship is disrupted when the Intendant sends Esther to the Ursuline Monastery. Years later, Esther becomes Mother Superior of the Ursulines of Quebec. Guignol's antics will lead their paths to cross again under incredible circumstances years later... The presentation of the shows during the summer of 2026 is made possible thanks to the support of the City of Quebec.
